>>40952333That all seems sensible. They'd find themselves in a peculiar position as it seems they have an attraction to human minds, at least when they are in their earliest stages (being drawn to happy emotions). Is it safer or more dangerous near urban areas? Perhaps they'd prefer to hang around the outskirts of smaller towns. Access to humans but in a quiet, safer environment, where the most dangerous wild Pokemon are also driven away.
>Gardevoir are as smart as people, but are also wild animals, so they'd have to find a way to exist alongside society.It's difficult and strange to ponder. You have something with the mental power of a human, the ability to reason, but whose psychological nature must be fundamentally different. The result of her interactions with the world being totally different. I like the idea, which is related to this, that Gardevoir and other psychic Pokemon might not have the best visions or hearing because their brain is devoted to interpreting psychic energy instead. Maybe they are color blind, or see other wavelengths of light, and/or see with lesser resolution or have vision not as good at tracking movement. Or some such.
How often might humanoid Pokemon use tools? Granted, as the intelligent ones are also innately very powerful it makes sense why they never developed much or any tool use or built technology or civilizations. Humans had to develop that way because their natural abilities were lacking, but Gardevoir, Alakazam, or Dragonite already has all its needs to master its environment.
Question to elaborate on: why are they solitary? How did that singular bonding develop? How fast to they reproduce? Their young are fragile, after all.
